Plume de Paon necklace

Plume de Paon necklace, set with one rose-cut diamonds, pavé diamonds, in white gold

It was while “playing” with a peacock feather that Frédéric Boucheron and the head of the workshop imagined the Peacock feather necklace (Plume de Paon) : a jewel combining freedom, suppleness, lightness and unique creativity. Today, the Boucheron Maison revisits the feather, symbol of life, by revealing a modern approach to femininity. The Plume de Paon necklace is born of Boucheron’s savoir-faire, enriched by a new technique exclusive to the Maison: the specific assembly of diamonds which replicates the suppleness of a real peacock feather. The Hands of Light give life to the feathers.Thus, the creation moves with its wearer, like a feather ruffling in the gentle breeze.

Le Point d'Interrogation [The Question Mark]

In 1883, Grand Duke Alexei, a loyal Boucheron customer, buys an amazing emerald and diamond peacock feather necklace. It is called the 'question mark' because of its innovative shape that wraps around the wearer's neck without needing to be fastened, giving the woman freedom as well as enhancing her beauty. Designed by Frédéric and the head of his workshop, Paul Legrand, this asymmetrical piece is of an unprecedented modernity and will form part of the collection that will win the Gold Medal at the World's Fair in 1889.
